I almost spit my drink out.
Thank you. Rumor floating around LVD is in the hospital. I think it's just that.
This just breaks my heart.This is why Tylee's story breaks my heart. The earliest reports about her are of her mother, against explicit professional advice, pressuring Tylee to report alleged abuse by her father. Why would she want to report something that should be about her right to bodily integrity and safety when her mother was so focused on what said report could do for her mother? It had to be clear to young Tylee that her safety was an afterthought. I do not think young Tylee's silence (or young CR's inconsistencies) "proves" the allegations one way or the other; Tylee had had just as good a reason to keep her mouth for true allegations as false. (CR and AC are alive and have first hand memories. I believe their adult recollections.) If the allegations as Lori reported them were true, Lori's insistence on using her daughter's tragic story made it impossible to protect Tylee. It doesn't seem like Tylee could ever speak the truth from her own point of view and to meet her own needs, ever. Now she is dead, I know her name, but I don't know anything about her. Emotionally, financially, even co-parenting, Tylee had to be all about meeting Lori's needs.
Hmm
that is curious. I haven’t heard that one. Off to search to see what I can find out.
From what I am finding, LVD is still in custody. And from viewing other people who have been in custody before, if they are sick or at the hospital the “custody status” changes to the infirmary. Idk if they would change her status but I would assume so if something was up.Hmm
AC witnessed JR physically abuse CR. According to her, this was the reason for breaking contact with her brother. We don't know if any sexual abuse took place, only that CR claimed that on TV. Was he old enough to (later) make a distinction between his mother's coaching and reality? IMO Tylee was too young. She probably would not be able to reliably tell what happened. There were other sexual improprieties reported in that household, so it's even possible that Lori was guilty of some form of abuse and projected it on JR.This is why Tylee's story breaks my heart.

RSBMThis is why Tylee's story breaks my heart...Tylee had to be all about meeting Lori's needs.
The whole time reading this I kept mentally repeating **...and Paula Yates' wedding dress but dyed in black...** But, Paula's dress is too beautiful to change and drape on LVD's shoulders. Sooo, maybe Bjork can dye her swan dress black and send it to Idaho? Seems like fitting symbolism.
